]]>These street side food shops have survived the tests of time thanks just to word of mouth.

1. Beef pho (pho bo) | 34 Au Trieu Street:

Netizens call this pho bo stall ‘Tư Lùn’ (short Tư), but the middle-aged owner insists on leaving his shop nameless. The rusty signage has been scraped off and is now a blank canvas, but from 6 to 10 in the morning, regulars cram in to get their morning fix of pho.

2. Beef pho (pho bo) | Hang Trong-Hang Bong intersection:

If a shop sign is optional, then so are tables at this sidewalk stall on Hang Trong Street. Pho Hang Trong is one of the last stalls that still cling to the decades-old practice that requires eaters to hold their own bowls and sometimes to eat standing up. Feeling uncomfortable? In the past, you even had to bring your own bowl!

3. Steamed rice rolls (banh cuon) – Nguyen Che Nghia Street:

The banh cuon shop on Nguyen Che Nghia Street has a sign, but it belongs to another noodle shop. Yes, the two shops share the same location but open as different, a common practice around Hanoi due to the lack of space. Mrs.Tuyet only arrives on her motorbike with a basket of banh cuon, a few bowls and chopsticks at around 3 p.m, but she sells out within the hour.

4. Snails – 2 Hang Than Street:

If you’re considering tucking into a stack of fresh snails on the sidewalk, there’s no need to go looking for a sign. This small stall serves the best snails braised in garlic, chili and lemongrass, which go perfectly with a beer or two in this chilly weather.

5. Fish noodles (bun ca) – 5 Trung Yen Alley, Dinh Liet Street:

It can take a while to figure out how to zigzag your way down the tiny alley in the busy Old Quarter, but the reward is worth it. There’s not only the fish noodles to tempt diners, this stall also serves some of the best fish spring rolls to go with them. Need more directions? Look for the biggest ficus tree in the alley.

6. Snail noodles (bun oc) – 6 Hang Chai Street:

The small but busy complex of Hang Chai Street sells everything: fake flowers, fried ragworms, clothes and most importantly, one of the best snail noodles in the capital. A bowl of snail noodles goes best with fresh salad, boiled beef and gio – a special Vietnamese pork sausage.

7. Vietnamese fritters – 257 La Thanh Street:

La Thanh is not the ideal street for sidewalk cuisine due to the lack of space, but some Hanoians still manage to make a living literally on the street. It’d be easy to miss this stall as it blends in with the busy steel shops, but its banana, corn and potato fritters are definitely worth a stop.

8. Bun cha – 47 La Thanh Street:

This bun cha stall does not only take up a whole alley, it’s busy all the time. The bun cha here is remarkable for its balanced dipping sauce and soft grilled pork without the charred bits.

If you ever feel hungry in the afternoon, join high school students for this Hanoi snack right in front of a temple in the West Lake area. Deep fried cake balls stuffed with chopped pork might seem too greasy, but the spicy papaya salad that comes with them is a game changer.

]]>The French left Vietnam in 1954 after 100 years of colonial rule, but their influence on Vietnamese cuisine remained. From the egg coffee, to sandwiches, to classic Vietnamese noodle dishes, there is a taste of east and west. If you like fusion cuisine, it’s cool to see and taste its modern day interpretations in Hanoi.

I asked our tour guide Ms. Bach Duong to take me to eat some Phở (noodles) and Bánh Mì (sandwich) for breakfast. He politely refused. I asked him why. He said, “You have such a nice breakfast at your Western hotel.” Indeed, the buffet breakfast was over the top, but I wanted the real thing. I wanted to compare Hanoi with Vietnamese food back in California. Most of our Vietnamese food in the U.S. is from southern Vietnam, so it was fun to discover some of the differences between northern and southern dishes.

Here’s where the fun began. As much as I try to respect local culture, I’ve been rebuked at least a few times on our travels on how to eat or not eat food. Like dipping my already seasoned sashimi into soy sauce at the Tsukiji fish market in Tokyo. Or, asking for sauces for my pho and other dishes in Hanoi. One distinct difference between Hanoi and southern Vietnamese food is that in Hanoi they don’t have the habit of drowning their food with additional condiments. Oops.

What I did learn from my our short four-day swing through Hanoi is that the Vietnamese people are some of most gracious and friendly people in the world. I think I already knew that from having Vietnamese American friends in California, but traveling to their homeland helped me appreciate that even more.

The following is a sample of some of my favorite foods in Hanoi. And by the way, I never got that Banh Mi.

BEST NORTH VIETNAMESE FOOD IN HANOI

CHA CA LA (GRILLED FISH)

This was one of my favorite foods in Hanoi; Cha Ca La is different than what I am used to eating. In fact, it’s really different from the rest of the Vietnamese dishes in Hanoi. The fish is cooked in a turmeric oil and served with rice noodles and garnished with peanuts, green onions and heaps of dill. It’s different.

Cha Ca La (grilled fish) is a rice noodle dish coupled with local fish seasoned with plenty of turmeric, peanuts, green onions, and then with heaps of dill.

BUN CHA (GRILLED PORK AND VERMICELLI)

Bun Cha is perhaps Hanoi’s most famous dish and one of my favorites back home. It’s a rice noodle dish with grilled pork. It usually comes with some lettuce, ground peanuts, fish and vinegar sauce and maybe spring rolls.

Bun Cha is a popular Hanoi food – a rice noodle dish with grilled pork.

CA PHE TRUNG (EGG COFFEE)

Ca Phe Trung (egg coffee) has been served in Vietnam since the 1950s. A must try. Buzzfeed called it “liquid tiramisu.” It is sweet and savory.

Beer and food shops have attracted millions of Vietnamese and foreign tourists to Hanoi.

Mai Tien Dung, former Deputy Director of Hanoi’s Department for Culture Sports, and Tourism, says: “Hanoi was the capital city for more than a thousand years. It’s the convergence of national quintessence including cuisine. Hanoi has several famous dishes and foreign tourists are impressed by Hanoi’s dishes. Many Hanoi’s dishes have been mentioned in world travel guide books with their original names like Nem, Pho, and Cha Ca.”

The capital Hanoi has produced many delicious dishes in Vietnam’s culinary art such as Pho, Bun Cha, and Nem (spring roll).

Pho Thin in Lo Duc Street has been famous for its Pho with half-fried beef which is greasy and aromatic spicy.

Thu Lan from Pho Thin says: “Pho Thin has existed for more than 40 years. It’s our family trade and only our brothers and sisters work here. Many of our customers come from afar because they know about our reputation.”

Tourists to Hanoi also want to try Bun Thang, vermicelli in chicken and shrimp soup. It is the most sophisticated noodle of Hanoians. The broth made from chicken bones and shrimp has to be pure and slightly sweet but not too greasy. A great bowl of bun thang is not only tasty but well-decorated.

Nguyen Thi My owns a Bun Thang eatery in Hang Hom Street: “I took over the trade from my grandparent in 1991. Bun Thang is the second popular dish to Pho. The materials include noodle, fried egg, shredded chicken breast, shrimp, pork paste, mushroom, and variety of herbs. I’m very happy that Bun Thang is renowned worldwide.”

Hanoi’s Bun Cha is a popular and delicious dish which comprises of rice noodle, grilled pork, spice, raw vegetables, and well mixed fish sauce. The sauce is mixed to contain all the essential tastes: sour, hot, salty, and sweet.

Inside this soft shell is a selection of herbs and greens – mainly cilantro, mustard leaf, and lettuce – and thinly sliced beef that has been cooked with garlic and generous amounts of pepper.

]]>1.”Sua chua nep cam”: It is disturbingly hot during this time of the year in Hanoi. But, thankfully, people in the capital city have come up with drinks and desserts that help cool off. Among them is a mix of yogurt with purple sticky rice and ice shavings, known as sua chua nep cam in Vietnamese, which is a must-eat.

The rice, or nep cam, is not fermented like the one sold in Ho Chi Minh City. So it can be bland for some people, but it is a perfect match with the yogurt. Condensed milk added on top is a plus for those who have a sweet tooth.

Sua chua nep cam can be found at street stalls near the Big Church. There you can also find Hanoi’s signature cold drink sau da in which the sweet and sour syrup from preserved fruits, scientifically named Dracontomelon duperreanum, is served with ice cubes.

2. “Nem vuong”: One of the most famous sellers of nem vuong, a Hanoi specialty often described as “square spring roll”, is located on Dao Duy Tu Street. It is not a fancy restaurant, but just a street stall recognizable by its baskets of ready-to-be-served “rolls”.

An order of nem vuong is served in a small tray along with rice vermicelli, fresh herbs and a dipping sauce of sweet and sour processed fish sauce.

Compared to the rolls sold elsewhere, nem vuong here has a thicker wrapper made from rice paper. But, it is crispy and does not hide the taste of the crab meat inside.

3. “Che”: Also on Dao Duy Tu Street is an eatery that sells che, a Vietnamese term for any sweet beverage, dessert soup or pudding. The place is small and there are less than 10 dishes on the menu, but it is always crowded.

Its che are not only tasty, but look attractive like a bowl of che chuoi in which slices of grilled banana are arranged like a flower with little pink pearls of jelly in the middle. The banana is wrapped in sticky rice before grilling and served in coconut milk.

4. “Bun Cha”: If you like bun cha or grilled pork meat served with rice vermicelli, fresh herbs, and processed fish sauce, you should not miss Dac Kim, a little eatery on Hang Manh Street.

Thanks to a homemade recipe, the seasoned meat’s flavors here are remarkably different from anywhere else.

5. “Mien tron muc”: Mien tron muc or cooked glass noodles topped with strips of deep-fried squid and slices, fish paste, and shredded water spinach is another must-eat in the Old Square. An eatery in a very small alley named Trung Yen is famous nationwide for this dish.

Do not forget to add some soya sauce, vinegar or processed fish sauce to the mixture and stir before eating.

6. “Bun Thang”: Ever heard about bun thang? It is a dish of rice vermicelli with plenty of toppings: chicken, fried chicken eggs, cha lua (Vietnamese pork roll), long coriander, Vietnamese coriander, and nam huong (shiitake mushroom), all shredded or cut in strips. There is also salted duck egg cut in half, shrimp floss, and tom he (a species of prawn).

]]>When visited Hanoi, talking about ice-cream, most of tourist will come to Trang Tien street to enjoy its specialty ice-creams here. Trang Tien has been a famous of tasty ice-creams in Hanoi for a long time. Ice-creams here are very delicious with a variety of choices for you to try. Anyway, coconut ice-cream is highly recommended. Just recently, coconut ice-cream has been chosen to cool the heat on summer days because of the sweetness and fragrance of the coconut milk. Together with us to discover three well-known coconut ice-cream shops in Hanoi now.

1. Bao Oanh coconut ice-cream shop at No.7 Thanh Nien Street.

Bao Oanh shop locating near Truc Bach lake has been long considered as the most worth-visiting ice-cream shops of Hanoi. This is a café and cooling beverage shop which is quite familiar to many Hanoian and it is also well-known for the coconut ice cream. People said that this shop is the first one selling the coconut ice-cream in Hanoi capital. The coconut ice-cream has white milk color of and fragrance of distinct flavor of coconut milk, contained in a fresh coconut with cover, a little crushed coconut meat above, roasted peanut, fried grapes so that it not only looks very eye-catching but also tasty. From here, you can see clearly the sight of many places such as West Lake, Truc Bach Lake and Thanh Nien Street – one of the most beautiful streets of Hanoi.

By the way, because of the ingredients of milk, Bao Oanh coconut ice-cream has strong sweetness, somewhat drown out the fragrance of coconut. It is a good advice to gently scrape fresh coconut meat, then take a spoon of ice-cream together to reduce the sweetness and enjoy total special flavor of the coconut ice cream. The price of a coconut ice-cream is about 80.000 VND and coconut jelly is 60.000 VND. The price here is much higher compared to the average one of ice-cream shop in Hanoi but its quality and serving is

2. Dung coconut ice-cream at 54 Hang Cot Street.

Although Dung Coconut ice-cream appeared later than Bao Oanh and many other brands but it still attracts alarge number of customers thanks to long time famous taste. The advantage is its different tender coconut copra which is very thin and fresh.

The coconut jelly is clear with fatty sweetness. When you taste, piece of coconut jelly will melt slowly . If you want to have a nice relaxation with friends, Dung Coconut ice-cream is highly recommended. Anyway, there are also some other kind of sweet pudding here so that you will have a lot of choices. The special taste of this shop will surely never let you down.

3. Coconut ice-cream at 29 Hang Than Street.

Coconut ice-cream at 29 Hang Than attracts a relatively large number of tourists. Customers likely to come here because of its special caramel dishes. Another special features of coconut ice-cream Hang Than is that the ice-cream is poured from ice cream machine only when customer order, then it is covered with fresh coconut, crushed peanut, chocolate sauce and a tube of cinnamon. Ice-cream here is greasy, not too sweet and not too strong smell of milk like Bao Oanh shop and it also attracts customers because of chocolate sauce.

Regarding position, coconut ice-cream Hang Than does not have nice view as Bao Oanh shop, just small tables and plastic stools on the sidewalk. It is reason why its price is softer, range only from 50,000 – 60.000 VND/ fruit. For students who do not pay attention to the seat, coconut ice-cream Hang Than Goods may be an ideal choice. One more plus point of Hang Than Coconut ice-cream is that there are all kinds of caramel -delicious but very affordable price.
